Bifurcation stenting simulation: the vessel

CONCLUSION

  • Patient-based bifurcation models
    • We need to automate some time-consuming steps in order to use these simulations for a large series of patients
    • The better the imaging techniques, the better the models
  • Material modelling
    • Not all real-life phenomena are included (e.g. dissections)
    • Imaging might play a crucial role (accurate in-vivo determination of mechanical properties?)
